[He has to make sure he's read that first message right, because--]

A sniper rifle? In a scythe...? Doesn't that get a bit dangerous?

[Not that it doesn't sound cool as heck, and he definitely wants to take her up on that offer to see it, but how does she not accidentally shoot her fingers off with that........]

It's a type of magic, though, yeah. A lot of time it's an encompassing spell, but they can also be written on paper or something too.

[Though now he wonders if he's said too much since she said magic didn't exist where she's from............ but then, with how many magic users were already here, she's probably encountered at least a few of them already, so!]

What's Dust, though? It's not the type you usually find around the house, is it?

[She capitalized it, so... probably not?]

I saw a lot of that last month... people turning against others, that is. I'm hoping that's the last of it for a while. Monsters are easier to fight than innocent people, I think.

For the people I'm fighting sure. It's a pretty tricky weapon to use too without the proper training. So I wouldn't recommend it to a newbie either.

[Look there's a reason the headmaster of her school called it one of the most deadly weapons ever designed. She went overboard with it.]

Oh. That's kind of cool.

I think. I'll be honest I don't really get it but paper magic sounds cool.

Oh Dust? It's an energy source where I come from. Where you guys you like gas and electricity we use Dust to power things. It's like a powder or crystal that harnesses the elements to do stuff. I have bullets made with different kinds that I could show you sometime.

[It's freakin' magic but don't tell a RWBY that.]

Yeah. Last month is probably the worst I've seen it and I've been here since January.

Heh. Sounds like you have a good heart if you feel that way. I like you.

But how does it work, exactly? Is it just... a blade attached to a gun? Does the gun part lock when you're not using it?

[And after maybe ten or so minutes of radio silence, he follows up the text with absolutely stunning depiction based on his mental image of it.]

Like this?

[Look, he's no engineer, designer nor artist, apparently, don't @ him]

It's kind of hard to explain if you've never seen it. Think of it like... an invisible shield, maybe? Or force field? I could probably show it to you at some point, plus there's a few people here who specialize in it too.

[Also YEAH..... that does sound an awful lot like magic, but then if he's learned anything from his time here so far, it's that things aren't always the same across the board in other worlds.]

I wouldn't mind seeing that at some point, too. Your Dust bullets, I mean. It sounds a little like my own powers.

[Which........... is magic, but shh--]

N

No I

It's just normal to feel that way, that's all. It's n nothing about having a good heart or anythingb

[Syaoran will you ever stop being a tsundere and accept a compliment for once in your damn life]
